Young Adults Historical Tours

Top 10 Tours

For a true understanding of past events and the way people used to live, there’s no substitute for visiting the places where history happened. Historical tours for young adults from the UK let you delve into the past while enjoying the present!

On guided trips in Croatia for 18-30 somethings, you can get acquainted with the charms of Dubrovnik, once a trading port rivalling Venice in stature and now one of the world’s best-preserved medieval cities. Besides the cobblestone streets and historic walls, Dubrovnik’s trendy bars and cafés make it a great place to spend time.

History trips in Greece for young travellers might include a stop in Corfu, where the old town boasts a fortress harking back to Venetian times which repelled successive Ottoman attacks over the centuries. Landmarks such as the Acropolis and the Roman Agora await in Athens, the cradle of European civilisation, where echoes of the past seem to seep from the walls of the historic centre.

Spain is a popular holiday destination for many reasons, but Spanish history tours unlock fascinating aspects of the country’s past. The city of Toledo, once the capital of Spain, boasts a rich heritage that combines the legacies of Jewish, Visigoth, Moorish and Castilian settlement. In Seville, there is architecture reflecting the 500-year rule of the Moors as well as the 16th century Golden Age of the Christian era. The Mezquita of Cordoba and the Alhambra in Granada are magnificent reminders of the impact and longevity of Muslim rule in this corner of Europe.

Further afield, historical trips to China for young travellers transport you back to imperial times. The 15th century Forbidden City in Beijing, an extraordinary complex of wooden architecture, holds visitors spellbound. The same may be said for the famous Terracotta Army, one of the greatest archaeological finds of the 20th century, consisting of thousands of life-sized soldiers created to guard an emperor’s tomb. Visits to the Great Wall impress as much for the spectacular views as for the sense that they give of China’s power and strength during the centuries of the Ming dynasty.
